When someone purchases a new car and begins to drive it, generally speaking, the resale value of the car (in dollars) goes down each year. Let represent the number of years since purchase and represent the resale value of thecar (in dollars). The linear function that models the resale value based on the number of years since purchase is y = 32000 - 3500x. What can we say about the rate of change and the initial value? Answer fast please 25pts. multiple choice.

A. The rate of change is 32000 and the the initial value is -3500. $32000 represents the decrease of value per year and -3500 represents the initial value of the car.

B. The rate of change is 3500 and the initial value is 32000. 3500 means that the car increases its value by $3500 every year and the initial value is $32000.

C, The rate of change is -3500 and the initial value is 32000. -3500 represents the initial value of the car.

D. The rate of change is -3500 and the initial value is 32000. 32,000 represents the initial value of the car and -3500 is the decrease in value of the car every year.
